In January, Realme founder and CEO Li Bingzhong said Realme will launch more IoT products around personal, family and travel scenarios, including audio products, wearable devices, TVs, and peripheral products.
Earlier reports said that Realme will launch smart TVs at the end of 2019, the first to be released in India. But that didn’t happen as we enter 2020.
According to Realme CMO Xu Qi, Realme will definitely launch TV categories in 2020. The specific business model and back-end supply chain issues are still being explored, and there is no absolute conclusion.
Realme will be the latest to join the increasingly crowded TV market.
As cnTechPost reported in December, OnePlus launched TV products in India last year and has not yet released them in China.
However, according to Pete Lau, founder and CEO of OnePlus Mobile, OnePlus TV will fight for domestic release next year.
On December 30, Jiang Cong, general manager of Xiaomi China's sales operations, said on Weibo that Xiaomi TV has completed the goal of selling 10 million units in the Chinese market in 2019 in advance.
At present, there is no more detailed information about the Realme TV configuration price information, but considering Realme's consistent positioning, the TV should not be unexpectedly also the main price-performance product. The main rivals will be Xiaomi and Redmi TV.
